sIFR 2.0 Released

Mike Davidson has just announced the release of sIFR 2.0. This popular combination of slick javascript and smart use of Flash lets you choose custom fonts to display headlines on a website, for situations where the presentation of your page makes these considerations important. You can see an older version of sIFR in action on sixapart.com, and the new release improves the way the technique behaves when people have disabled or blocked Flash, while still providing very accessible content on your page.

As an added bonus, if you use the technique on any web page that displays comments, you can get a free debate about the relative merits of Flash, HTML, CSS and other presentation and display technologies!

Congraulations to Mike and his collaborators on the new release.
